Qualifications

There are a ton of great Python projects out there, but what makes an
application "Awesome™"? Please check that all of the following criteria apply:

  • Free software with an online source repository.
  • Using Python for a considerable part of their functionality.
  • Well-known, or at least prominently used in an identifiable niche.
  • Maintained or otherwise demonstrably still functional on relevant platforms.
  • An application, not a library or framework.

We are currently in the process of a re-thinking and re-doing of the application in the v0.6.x series to make it a serious, usable, useful and powerful, yet simple, image editor -hence the two repos. However, the v0.5.x series (the second link) is still usable as-is and has received very good feedback so far even though it is beta software. Therefore, I believe it still meets the Qualifications above.

To go a bit further in convincing, I do believe this is a unique (and quite ambitious) project and does/will showcase what can be done with Python and it's ecosystem (which I think is one of the goals of this list). Thank you for considering.
